Virus diseases continue to represent serious health problems in
most parts of the world. In spite of the fact that diseases such as
polio myelitis and measles have been controlled in the
industrialized countries by vaccination, vaccines now in use in
tropical countries have proved not to be optimal. Further research
is needed to develop new vaccines that will be effective in all
countries. To do so we need to understand better the immune
response to different viruses so that we may be able to maxi mize
the protective response of new vaccines and minimize their
potential immunopathologic effect. An exciting new discovery which
is now being further developed is the possibility of being able to
use some viruses (e.g. vaccinia, adenoviruses, etc.), as carriers
for other antigens. This may open up the way for the production of
vaccines that will be inexpensive and that will confer long lasting
immunity after only one injection. This meeting has also served to
review our present knowledge of virus diseases which are still of
great importance such as hepatitis, dengue and influenza."
